However, it is assumed that a zone will not contain more than 32 fire detectors and/or manual call points, since this would correspond to an unacceptably large search area. The Velocity panel has 254 zones. There is capability in some panel models (MMP10/64 &... - Page 17 SLC Device Text and Zoning Velocity is an addressable panel, i.e. it will indicate the address or location of a fire that has been detected. The address number of each point or device on the loop has already been set with the address programming tool VDOT-AD2. See Manual GLT-303-7-1 for details.
- Page 18 Velocity Operation Manual Press the ‘zone’ field to edit the device`s zone number if required. Edit another device, or press to exit the device list and save the changes.

Page 39: Day/Night Mode
Day/Night Mode The Velocity panel has a day night timer that allows certain system responses to be altered at certain times of the day. It allows for different delays for the day and night times, and it also allows the sensitivity of certain detectors to be set differently for the day and night. - Page 40 Velocity Operation Manual The screen shows the programmed day slice(s). Press the add icon to add a slice, or press exit icon if all slices are entered. When there are more than 4 slices programmed, the panel displays up /down scroll arrows in order to view the other slices.

Page 44: Alarm Verification
Retard time of up to 30 seconds and the detector’s alarm condition is automatically reset. There will be no alarm indication at the Velocity MMP panel during the Retard period, only an indication that an alarm is being verified. - Page 45 Velocity Operation Manual The panel shows the Delays screen. See the ‘Alarm Verificat’ with Off & On options. Select ON to enable, or select OFF to keep the verification disabled. The ‘Retard Time’ is the duration that the alarm signal is initially delayed and can be configured between 1-30 seconds.
- Page 46 Velocity Operation Manual Multiple Detector Operation The panel is equipped to satisfy those who require a Multiple Detector Operation feature that is used to reduce unwanted false alarms. If a multiple detector operation has been programmed, the panel will require the activation to two automatic detection devices before it will enter the alarm condition.
- Page 47 Velocity Operation Manual After selecting the input cause, the panel displays a screen to select the following effect options: Panel address: Leave as zero if the output effect is on this local panel, otherwise set to the network address of the destination panel.
-
Page 48: Positive Alarm Sequence
Positive Alarm Sequence The Velocity MMP is equipped with a positive alarm sequence that will program a delay to the NAC’s, Alarm relays and Auxiliaries for a period of between 1-15 seconds. If the alarm is acknowledged, it will silence the piezo sounder and start a timer which will prevent activation of these outputs for an additional time duration which can be user programmed between 1-180 seconds. - Page 49 Velocity Operation Manual The ‘Ext. Time’ is the duration of the second time delay and can be configured between 1-180 seconds. To change the time, press either the + or – button to increase or decrease the zone number. You can also type in the number via the panel numerical keyboard, to do this press on the zone number field.
- Page 50 PRE-SIGNAL shall only be used when the panel is constantly monitored by an Operator. Pre-Signal Setup Below is just an example of how pre-signal can be achieved on a Velocity MMP system. Ensure that when pre-alarm operation is used, that it complies with UL864 10 Edition requirements.
- Page 51 This flow chart is a breakdown of the pre-signal operation that has been programmed into the Velocity MMP cause & effects. When finished, press the exit icon . The panel will ask if you want to save the changes.

Page 52: Zone Disablement
Disablements To aid commissioning and assist routine maintenance checks, various functions of the Velocity fire alarm system can be disabled. The Velocity allows disablement of Inputs in a zone, Outputs in an alarm group, individual devices and individual module ports. - Page 53 Velocity Operation Manual When zones have been disabled, the LCD display changes from SYSTEM NORMAL to Disablement/Test. The screen shows:- The number of zones disabled. The number of zones with just their inputs disabled. The total number of disabled devices in those zones.
- Page 54 Velocity Operation Manual SLC Device Disablement Rather than disable an entire zone, it is often useful to just disable one or more devices or points (detector, call point, interface or sounder) within a zone, especially if they are malfunctioning and likely to cause an unwanted alarm or repeatedly indicate a trouble condition.
- Page 55 Velocity Operation Manual To re-enable a device, use the same procedure, pressing the ‘Mode’ field until it shows ‘Enabled’. Once a SLC device is disabled, the panel ignores any alarm or trouble generated by the device. If all devices in a zone are disabled, the panel will indicate a zone disablement.
- Page 56 Velocity Operation Manual When global relays have been disabled, the LCD display changes from SYSTEM NORMAL to Disablement, as shown. The screen shows the number of relay output interfaces disabled. The General Disablement LED will be lit. Details of the disabled relay outputs can be viewed by...
- Page 57 Velocity Operation Manual Details of the disabled sounder outputs can be viewed by pressing the disabled loop devices icon or the disabled local I/O icon . If any zones have all of their outputs disabled, it will be indicated by the disabled zone...
- Page 58 Velocity Operation Manual For further options, press the ‘Out’ field again. The status will change from ‘Relay disabled’ to ‘All disabled’. This would disable all sounder and relay outputs in that alarm group (zone). When Alarm group mode has been disabled, the LCD display changes from SYSTEM NORMAL to Disablement.
- Page 59 Velocity Operation Manual A local I/O can be disabled as follows: Enter the Engineer or User Password, Press the menu access icon , select the ‘local I/O’ Icon (The disabling function is available to engineer & users). The panel shows the module selection menu.
